The next day, Shuxin felt that Cao Guifang's attitude towards her had changed greatly. She had never been nice to her before, but today, when she went to school, Cao Guifang actually told her to study hard.
Shuxin was so shocked that she couldn't speak. It was Shu Youkang who smiled and patted Shuxin's head. "Grandma is talking to you."
Shuxin was really happy. This was the first time Cao Guifang had spoken to her in such a pleasant manner since she was young. She was so excited that she couldn't speak. She could only nod her head vigorously.
Shu Mengling, who was watching this scene from the window upstairs, was so angry that she almost tore the curtains apart.
Shu Youkang personally sent Shuxin to school. On the way, he said guiltily, "Xin 'er, I'm sorry for what happened on the school forum. You know your grandma's temper. Sigh …"
"It's okay. As long as grandma is happy, it's fine." Shuxin smiled and comforted Shu Youkang. She thought for a moment and said, "There are also some rumors in school that Ling 'er thinks that I stole her position as the young miss of the Shu family. That's why she targeted me."
Although Shu Mengling didn't come into this world as Shu Youkang had hoped, she was still his flesh and blood. Although Shu Youkang didn't love her as much as Shuxin, there wasn't much of a difference.
Shu Youkang completely disliked Shu Mengling because of what happened when she was six years old.
That year, Shu Mengling was six years old. Shu Youkang accidentally found her holding a needle and continuously poking the little rag doll in her hand. She repeatedly said, "Sister is a bad person. Ling 'er doesn't like you."
Such a small child had a vicious heart. At that time, Shu Youkang only felt his hair stand on end.
From then on, he couldn't like Shu Mengling no matter what.
Now that he heard Shuxin's words, he was even more furious. "I already knew that Ling 'er was not as obedient as she appeared to be, but I never thought that she would do such a thing to her own sister."
Shuxin only wanted Shu Youkang to know Shu Mengling's true colors, but she didn't want him to be angry. She comforted him softly, "Dad, don't be angry. I'm fine now, aren't I? In the past, because of Huo Jibai, I took all the ridicule and insults from Ling 'er's classmates. Now that she has experienced it herself, maybe she will change for the better after this lesson."
Shu Youkang frowned and did not reply. A six-year-old child only knew how to prick people with needles. Could she really become better?
Shuxin felt distressed when she saw Shu Youkang frowning. She took the initiative to change the topic and told Shu Youkang that she was going to represent her school to participate in the architectural design competition in the capital.
Shu Youkang's brows slowly smoothed out. His expression was tinged with pride and a smile.
After Shuxin returned to school, she thought about it carefully. It was not good for her to rashly check the accounts of her father's company. Otherwise, it would arouse Jiang Tingrou's suspicion.
The cooperation between Lan Kang Company and Huo Group had already started. She was the architect of this project. In the future, the quality inspection and evaluation of the project, as well as the acceptance of the key parts of the project, would all need her to do.
At that time, she could logically join the company without arousing Jiang Tingrou's suspicion. This way, it would be easier to investigate.
The most important thing now was to prepare well for the competition and strive for the championship. On one hand, she would win glory for her school. More importantly, if she beat Shen Aoteng, she would have a higher chance of recruiting him.
No one was willing to work with someone who was not as good as them.
